I said, ‘The Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, mobilized for Badr with three hundred and thirteen people. He mobilized for Uhud with six hundred and for al-Khandaq (Battle of Ditches) with nine hundred people.’ He asked, ‘Who has said it?’ I replied, ‘Ja’far ibn Muhammad, ‘Alayhi al-Salam .’ He then said, ‘By Allah whoever adopts a way other than his way is lost.’”

قَالَ قَالَ لِيَ الْحَجَّاجُ وَسَأَلَنِي عَنْ خُرُوجِ النَّبِيِّ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) إِلَى مَشَاهِدِهِ فَقُلْتُ شَهِدَ رَسُولُ اللهِ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) بَدْراً فِي ثَلاثِمِائَةٍ وَثَلاثَةَ عَشَرَ وَشَهِدَ أُحُداً فِي سِتِّمِائَةٍ وَشَهِدَ الْخَنْدَقَ فِي تِسْعِمِائَةٍ فَقَالَ عَمَّنْ قُلْتُ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ (عَلَيْهِما السَّلام) فَقَالَ ضَلَّ وَاللهِ مَنْ سَلَكَ غَيْرَ سَبِيلِهِ.
